The law that is currently in parliamentary consultation includes, above all, the option to actively manage these investment vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn 2004, Luxembourg already created a sound legal basis for such transactions with its Securitisation Act\u201d, said Knoblach. \u201cOther securitisation locations, such as the Cayman Islands or the Channel Islands, do not meet the required high standards of transparency or security for many investors.\u201d It is no wonder then that Luxembourg is home to a large proportion of high-quality securitisations. \u201cThis advantage is now being secured and expanded\u201d, Knoblach pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other states, such as Germany, do not have their own securitisation law so that the provisions of the various laws governing the financial market apply. In Switzerland, another major market for the sale of securitisations, the legal setup is similar: \u201cThe various laws have to be combined, which makes the process of securitisation very tedious and slow, just like in Germany\u201d, said Knoblach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The law on securitisation in the UK is particular: \u201cThere is no uniform legal framework. In England and Wales, there are statutory provisions that are based on EU law\u201d, Knoblach illustrated the situation. For Scotland and Northern Ireland, on the other hand, different rules apply \u2013 just like for the Channel Islands, which have a special status within the UK. \u201cThis is where an extensive securitisation sector has formed in view of fairly limited legislation with relatively few obligations for issuers and relatively few rights for investors\u201d, said Knoblach. \u201cMany investors, however, shy away from the lack of transparency and prefer to turn to Luxembourg: its legal certainty outweighs the price advantage in the Channel Islands.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This also applies to even more exotic securitisation locations such as the Cayman Islands. \u201cThere, investments are frequently only tax-driven\u201d, said Knoblach. \u201cThis is problematic because taxes are only one element in the overall view \u2013 and for many institutional investors, transparency and security are the key factors to consider.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fair-alpha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Luxembourg-expands-priority-position-for-securitisations-01.17.2022.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download press release!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With a revised and expanded law on securitisations, the Luxembourg Parliament is granting its domestic financial sector an important competitive advantage. \u201cThe new law could enter into force during the first half of the year\u201d, said Daniel Knoblach, Board Member at FAIR ALPHA. \u201cThis will serve to remove existing barriers and make Luxembourg law the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"1200","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[51,56],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2495","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all","category-luxembourg"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
